Windows 10: "Record that" XBOX GAME BAR function not working for specific apps

Last 30 seconds recording not working specifically on the old games I used to play, such as Left 4 Dead 2 or RDR2. The odd thing is that function worked just fine after some of those bad days.The odd thing is that the normal recorder works just fine as usual, yet the game bar doesn't want to record last 30 seconds because it doesnt recognize the app as a game. Whenever I try to check "Remember it as a game" it automatically unchecks itself.Tried every common solutions such as restarting or shutting down the Game Bar. Nothing helped.

Game bar capture doesn't record audio anymore

What do you need me to tell you? I have told as much as I know about the issue, and I am trying to cooperate with you but the fixes that you are giving me are not specific to the issue, which I am going to restate:

Xbox Game Bar does not record system audio, only video, and this is probably due to the use of the Razer sound card which I am using with my headphones. I am wondering if there is a fix for this issue or whether I will just have to work around it.

These are things that I have already done from your previous responses:

• Enabled 'All' audio to record
  
• Turned on 'Record audio when I record a game'
  

I have also attempted to:

• Reset all Xbox apps
  
• Re-register the Xbox Game Bar
  
• Uninstall and reinstall the Xbox Game Bar
  

These were all unsuccessful.

Any other link (Game Bar not recording at all, Game Bar not capturing microphone audio, Game Bar not working completely) was unrelated.

 

Xbox Game Bar Capture Doesn't Record Mic Audio

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while recording microphone audio using game bar while playing games.



I would suggest you to try troubleshooting Game Bar and see if that helps. Refer the article

Troubleshoot Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10



In addition, you can also check if the Microphone for game bar is enabled under privacy settings.

1. Go to Settings (press Windows +
   I key together) > Privacy.
   
2. On the left hand pane scroll down and look for
   Microphone.
   
3. Toggle Allow apps to access Microphone
   to ON.
   
4. Under Choose which Microsoft Store app can access your Microphone toggle Xbox game bar to
   ON.
   
5. Restart the game bar.
   

If the issue persists, please get back to us with details of the troubleshooting steps to assist you further.

Microphone not working with Xbox game bar

My son is trying to record his playing on roblox using Xbox game bar. He is using a laptop on windows 10.

It was working fine a few days ago. Now he is having problems with the microphone. When he brings up the xbox game bar, (windows G), the menu says that the microphone is not working because of privacy settings.

When I go to the privacy settings for microphone, I gave permission to use the microphone for all the listed apps. But xbox game bar is not one of the listed apps. I also tried "reset" on the xbox game bar which did not help.

How can I give permission to the xbox game bar to access the microphone?

Microphone itself is working. I can use it on Cortana.

Thanks
